Pokemon gen 3

There has been a new addition from thePokemon franchise to Nintendo’s upcoming Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, and it’s not quite what people would have expected. Destructoid has reported that the new addition is from Gen 3 of Pokemon, meaning the Ruby/Sapphire era. Most people would have expected additions from Gen 7, but that is not the case this time. The addition is the battle theme from the Steven battle, simply called “Battle! (Steven). This theme plays after the player defeats the Pokemon League in Gen 3, and goes on to face Steven, the Champion. It was added to the Super Smash Bros YouTube channel earlier in the week, and has been received with an overwhelmingly positive response since.

Although it’s a little too cold to go outside and play Pokemon GO in some regions over the winter, Niantic is doing everything possible to keep players engaged in the game over these chilly months. The latest push, which shortly follows some controversial EX Raid updates, adds a new batch of Gen-3 monsters to hunt down.

If all of the new Pokemon had arrived at once, the hardcore players likely would have hunted them all down within the first few weeks. This approach allows Niantic to pull players back into the game month after month, during a season when the game is usually losing players. The next addition begins tomorrow and will bring a swarm of Dragon- and Flying-Type Pokemon into the game… “In celebration, Pokémon originally discovered in the Hoenn region will take over wild encounters until February 13.
